Wardrobe worries

A poll by Sharps has revealed that the typical woman’s wardrobe is crammed full with 107 different items of clothing, but despite this, she still claims to have nothing to wear at least once a week. Concerns about items that have been worn recently or don’t go with any outfits are the main reasons for last-minute panics, while outfits being pictured regularly on Facebook also means that dresses or tops are seen as ‘old’ soon after purchase. In addition, the average woman says that 36% of her clothes are completely unsuitable and will never be worn again, while 15% have never been worn at all!
